Wow: After a week of silence about the FBI raid on her DC home, Rep. Ilhan Omar surfaced . . . to ask for cash.
In her video appeal to supporters, the Minnesota Democrat says she’s living “paycheck to paycheck” — raising eyebrows about what happened to the millions in wealth that she and hubby Tim Mynett declared two years ago, only to drop the estimate to near-nothing last year.
Mynett, whom she married (hubby No. 3, we think) after her campaign paid one of his companies big-time for consulting work, has seen two of his other firms — a direct-to-consumer wine biz and a venture-capital partnership — face federal scrutiny, since the valuation of the firms is at the heart of the now-you-don’t-see-it fortune.
Omar’s office blamed an “accounting error,” which makes you wonder if she was using a Quality Accouting Center for the work.
With a body-language expert telling The Post she saw “countless signals of deception” in the video appeal, we have to advise even the most die-hard Omar supporters to hold off giving — this whole thing is starting to look like another of those Minnesota Somali scams.
